Luis Suárez celebrates one of the goals he scored against Chile.
Uruguay striker Luis Suárez scored all four goals as the Copa America holders crushed Chile 4-0 on Friday to stay top of the South American 2014 World Cup qualifying group.
Suárez scored twice in each half, his goals spanning a 30-minute period in which Uruguay devastated Chile, who went into the match following coach Claudio Borghi’s dismissal of five of his players for indiscipline in midweek.
Suárez was substituted soon after his final goal to resounding cheers from the crowd at a packed Centenario stadium, and watched the rest of the game from the bench with the match ball under his arm.
Uruguay lead the nine-nation group with seven points from three matches after last month’s home 4-2 win over Bolivia and 1-1 draw at Paraguay.
